I had some near suicide experiences after running it at 200 mg/wk (ace) for over 1 year straight and yes i know that was stupid lol. im taking 5htp everyday now and am finally starting to feel better. what can be done to counter the effects of tren on serotonin? i do NOT want to take an ssri antidepressant. i never have and i hopefully never will.
Certainly hear a lot of anectdotal evidence of tren causing psychological sides, but I haven't ever seen anyone post a study and find nothing in an article search.
I am not a fan of 5-HTP but I don't tolerate much in the way of stuff that effects the serotonin or CNS for that matter (gets sides from melatonin with restless legs, feel weird with L-tryptophan and 5-HTP, etc.).

I did see a Harvard research letter years ago about a study on depression that showed incredible efficacy with patients who were dosed on fish oil (omega 3 with high EPA) at 12g/d. But I cannot locate that article. The only thing I find is a bit vague but does have a small bit of evidence regarding fish oils.

I would think that once tren is removed the side effects if truly dealing with serotonin would abate unless there is real long term use.
